why not? it's not as much "hope" as it is statistically likely.

and we are positioning ourselves for a run at the 1 seed. we're 2 games up on the bucks and 4 up on the sixers. given we've already won 10/11 games the likelihood of us winning at least 50 is pretty high. I have no reason not to expect us to win 40 out of the next 71, and 40-31 the rest of the way is a pretty conservative prediction.

50 is not going to be enough for the 1 seed

probably not but like I said that's a conservative prediction. ~55 could be enough and is certainly a possibility. 45-26 the rest of the way not seem realistic?

I think the team will finish between 50-53 wins. The year we started 16-2, we finished 39-25.

If we have the exact same winning percentage as that season the rest of the way, we'll be at 53 wins.

I think you guys are severely underrating how bad our center lineup is. We're one of the worst rebounding teams in the league. Obvious solution = Kanter. But Kanter is only a good offensive rebounder. And he kills the defense. We aren't going to continue being the best offense in the league, and if the defense slips at all we're in big trouble. Which it will if Kanter is playing minutes.

No s***. But just bc you don’t win a championship doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the team bozo

Y'all killing the vibes in here

fr fr

don't catch the bait

Another underwhelming performance from kemba.

The suspense was killing me on that shot man

You can pinpoint when my heart broke

F*** Buddy Hield

I f*** with Kemba but he’s really gotta put together a full game

Cry

How did that shot not drop?

Damn, Tatum almost got 30

quality win off a back to back, grant williams gonna earn more minutes

BIG GAME TN

This clipper game will determine if the Celtics are real

Tatum really didn't get a shot in the 4th

My nigga

Smart is still a dumbass

surprise face a good team and kemba is ass

I love Tatum but I've noticed sometimes he turns in Jayson Wiggins, as in he disappears for a while.

That was a great game. Been a while since a regular season took some years off my life. Shot selection in OT was weak. Overall, not mad at this L. Not happy bout the result but f*** it. 11-3 isn't a bad place to be.

No, smart and kemba took over the offense in the 4th for some reason. Don't put that scrub in the same sentence with Tatum
